The Triple Play PRIME Softball Pitching Machine can automatically throw a 70 mph riser, a 35mph change-up, drop curves, curves, screwballs, drop screws, drops and everything in between. The TriplePlay PRIME can change a pitch as fast as you can push a button. Simple digital controls make your job easy by automatically changing the position and speeds of the three throwing wheels, thereby completely eliminating time-consuming mechanical adjustments. And once your pitches are stored, you don't even have to push a button.
In fact, TriplePlay PRIME provides all the same features as the programmable Triple Play Ultra machine but with hand-feeding of balls instead of automatic feeding. That means it can throw a combination of Fastballs, Risers, Drop Curves, Screwballs and Drop Screwballs in any order you choose, or randomly for a game-like experience. All you have to do is drop the balls in the chute because TriplePlay automatically changes the pitches for you.
Programming pitches typically requires less than 30 seconds each, and TriplePlay PRIME remembers your pitches even after you turn it off. With eight programs available you can customize workouts for different hitters. By programming in a mix of balls and strikes you can teach the highest level of hitting skill - pitch discrimination.

The Three Wheel Advantage
Visibility. The softball is visible from the time it leaves the feeder’s hand until it is pitched, unlike two-wheel pitching machines in which the ball is hidden by the throwing wheels before being pitched. This allows the hitter to more naturally time the pitches.
Accuracy. TriplePlay PRIME's three-wheel pitching mechanism is more accurate than two wheels because more gripping surface is put on the ball.
Time. The three-wheel design requires significantly less movement of the throwing mechanism to produce different pitches than does a two-wheel machine, so changing pitches takes less time.
Versatile and Easy to Transport. TriplePlay PRIME moves easily to the field for batting and fielding practice - both groundballs and flyballs. Just lay it down and use the built-in transport wheels to push it across the field.
